I woke up wondering how today was going to go with Logan McAlister; it has been a week and he has been extremely irritating since the day I started. I’m not sure if I can handle working for him much longer before I blow up, he knows how to push every button I have without even trying. The only plus side to Mr. McAlister is that I get to look at his sexy smile every day, what I wouldn’t give just to kiss those sexy soft lips of his.

When I arrived at the office, Logan was in his office yelling at someone on the phone. I'm just glad it isn’t me this time. I lightly knocked on his door to see if he wanted his coffee, “What!” Logan yelled towards the door.

“Sorry Mr. McAlister, I just wanted to see if you wanted your coffee,” I said sheepishly. Why does he always have to be in such a bad mood towards me, I really don’t understand what I have done so wrong?

“Can you not see that I am busy on the phone? Why would you come knock on my door when I’m sure you could hear me on the phone?” He sounded so irritated like I should know better than to offer him his coffee. I had about enough of the yelling from the snot nosed rich boy, if he thinks this will continue he has another thing coming.

I felt my face turning red and knew I was about to explode, “First of all, I am so tired of you yelling at me like I’m a piece of trash, IT WILL STOP OR I AM DONE! Second, you’re going to start talking to me with some respect, just because you’re my boss does not mean you get to treat me the way you do. I was being nice by asking if you needed your coffee, maybe next time I won’t be so nice and I’ll just throw it in your face!!!” I was fuming I couldn’t even think clearly I was so mad, I could tell he was seriously contemplating everything I said.

“That is all for now Miss Peters,” he said casually like he could just blow me off.

“You’re Damn right Mr. McAlister that is all for now, and I’m leaving for the rest of the day just so I can get away from you, enjoy your day,” I think I said that a little too sarcastically but I couldn’t help it, this man was going to drive me insane. I just want to beat him every time I see him with that sexy smile on his face, or every time he looks at me with those passion filled eyes.

I walked to my desk to grab my things to leave but before I even made it to the elevator Logan was standing there like he wanted to say something, the look in his eyes made me want to tie him up and have my way with him. “Miss Peters I’m sorry, I have a lot going on with the company and didn’t think about how I was treating you. Would you like to go to lunch with me, it will be my treat?”

I didn’t know what to say, this man can make me hate him one minute then the next I want to seduce him. “Ok Mr. McAlister, if you think you can buy me off with lunch you are highly mistaken,” I wasn’t going to let him try to pay me off with lunch or try to win me over. “I’m not the kind of girl that jumps at material things you might want to remember that in the future.”

“I wasn’t meaning it like that at all, I’m sorry if it came off that way; I just think we both need a break from the office and it would be nice to try and get to know my assistant a little better. What do you say?” He said this with a grin like he knew I was going to say yes, he had such a big ego maybe I can knock that ego down a little bit.

“Ok, I’ll go this once and if you try to get too personal or you irritate me again I will leave,” I said this as a warning but I knew I wouldn’t go anywhere, who would when they are sitting next to the sexiest man alive. I think I am going to be in for an exciting afternoon with Mr. McAlister.

We didn’t really talk on the way to the café he decided to pick out for lunch; I wasn’t in the mood for talking at this point.

    I couldn't get the picture of a man grabbing Lilly out of my head. I was furious and thought about going back to that club to find the piece of shit. I kept reminding myself that I didn’t even know his name. Lilly looked so fragile when she walked out of that night club. The bruise on her arm tore at my insides, I should’ve been there. I tried to let it go and reply back to her message. Lilly, I will try my hardest to be good. I know I am still your boss so I have to maintain that professional relationship. Logan P.S. You keep starting things but will you ever finish them? Let’s see what she has to say about that. I waited about an hour and never received a reply, maybe she fell asleep. I started thinking about having to leave next weekend for Brazil. The thought of going back to that hell hole made my stomach turn. I knew I had to be careful this time, I had too much to lose. Lilly and I had something going between us, I didn’t want anything to mess it up. I knew we needed

    “I’m sorry Lilly I called Logan from your phone because I knew we needed a ride home and I was worried about you” Lisa said sadly. “It’s OK Lisa I thought about calling him myself” I said honestly. I smiled at Logan thinking how sweet it was that he came to help us. “Lilly tell me who hurt you please, I will take care of it immediately” Logan stated furiously. “I’m fine, I took care of it myself” I said. I wasn’t going to tell him how my arm was already hurting. Logan walked up to me and looked so angry I wanted to slink away. His gaze softened and in a sweet voice he said, “Are you sure you’re ok because that bruise has the shape of fingerprints.” “Yes Logan I’m fine, I’m a little tipsy but other than that I’m good. Can you please take us to my apartment?” I asked. I didn’t know if I should even tell Logan what happened, I would decide laterWhen we arrived at the apartment building, I gave Lisa the key to let herself in. She waved goodbye to Logan and told him thank you. “It’

    Lisa and I walked down to the nightclub, we could see the neon lights flashing from a block away. When we got in, we went straight to the bar and ordered our drinks. We decided to sit down at a table to talk and enjoy ourselves. A tall, almost God-like man came and asked Lisa if she wanted to dance. I looked at her and smiled real big. Lisa eagerly accepted the man’s request. I watched Lisa have the time of her life with this handsome man. I decided to check my messages and saw one from Logan. Lilly I really need to talk to you, I need to know you are OK. Please answer me. L.M. So he’s back to the nice and sweet Logan I can see. I decided to ignore his message for now. I went to get another drink while Lisa was dancing. A went to walk back to my table and a tall blonde guy with creepy looking eyes stopped me. “Hey sexy, would you like to dance with me?” he asked. I looked around for Lisa and she seemed so happy I didn’t want to ruin it for her. I decided to dance with

    The next morning I woke up bright and early so I could get everything ready for the trip home. I finally decided to read the message I had received last night. This only further confused me, does he think it’s ok to be ice cold one minute then try to apologize the next? I really could use a strong drink and it's not even noon yet. I met Logan in the lobby before the car arrived to take us to the airport. Logan of course looked great but I didn’t let it affect me. Logan walked up to me and asked, “Do you want anything to eat before leaving?”“No I’m fine, thank you though” I responded politely. I wasn’t going to let him see my anger or how upset I was with him. I refuse to let him get the best of me. He shrugged and we headed out to the car. I didn’t say anything to him on the way to the airport. I was looking out of the window but I wasn’t really looking at anything. My mind wouldn’t stop running long enough for me to concentrate on anything. I wanted to tell Logan that he hurt me by

  • Redemption   Chapter Fourteen

    Logan had been in there with that creepy guy for at least twenty minutes. I couldn’t really hear much because their voices were too low. I did hear that Logan had to go help this Armond guy next week. I don’t know what kind of business Armond does but it doesn’t seem like Logan was thrilled to see him. I know he made me feel uneasy and my gut feeling never lies to me. I was looking out the window when I heard Logan open the door. I turned to look at him and he had that beautiful smile that made me melt. “I take it you caught up with your friend” I asked. “Unfortunately yes, I haven’t seen Armond for a while. He just needs some help at his office next week so I’ll be gone for a few days” Logan stated. “I hope he didn’t scare you too much by just showing up like that.”“Well it was kind of weird that he was sitting in your room, but no I’m fine” I lied. I looked out of the window at the beautiful night life of Seattle. I could see the busy streets and people walking by. I noticed Loga

    I was frozen for a split second until Armond commented about Lilly. I felt the anger start in my chest and go up my face. “What the fuck are you doing here Armond?” I growled. “Why so angry McAlister”, Armond said laughing. “I wanted to check on you since you never responded to me.”“I’ve been rather busy lately” I stated angrily. I looked at Lilly and could see the confusion and fear in her eyes. I felt a stab in my heart when I saw her face. “Lilly, this is an old friend of mine, his name is Armond” I said casually. “Would you mind going into the bedroom so I can catch up with him for a few minutes?” I asked. Lilly nodded and walked to the bedroom and shut the door behind her. I don’t know how I’m going to explain this to her but I would come up with something. I turned back to Armond and asked, “OK you’re here, so what do you want?”Armond gave a dark sinister smile and said, “Well you know we have a shipment coming in one week and you have yet to reply back on if you would be i
